A scaling duel where your curve has no cap — chip the souls, root the all-ins, and out-infinite the finite.

Read from Senna's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Jinx.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Senna | Level 1 Jinx has no burst and short range, so you out-trade her freely. |
| Level 2 | Senna | Level 2 your W-Q all-in punishes her weak early minigun. |
| Level 3 | Senna | Level 3 you still out-range and out-sustain her ramp-up. |
| Levels 4-5 | Senna | Levels 4-5 your root pressure keeps her poor and off her timings. |
| Level 6 | Senna | Level 6 your R duel-shield beats her finisher ult in a straight lane fight. |
| First item | Senna | At one item your CS denial and W picks keep her from her crit spike. |
| Two+ items | Senna | At two-plus items your souls, global R, and pick threat out-fight her immobile scaling. |
Levels 1-2 are a hard stomp for you: Jinx has no early burst and short minigun range, so contest every melee minion and W-Q her whenever she reaches for CS with rockets. She has no burst and no escape, so contest every melee minion and root her whenever she reaches for CS in rocket form. Piercing Darkness heals you through anything she lands. Collect the souls she is forced to leave behind, and the range gap only gets wider from here.
